Chapter 200: Even if she had ten guts, she wouldn't dare
"How can this be possible?" Ye objected, "I'm afraid my brother won't agree. He has always wanted to marry my niece into the Yongning Marquis's mansion."
"Is your brother dreaming?" County Magistrate Zheng asked in surprise, "Does your brother have the ability to climb up to the Yongning Marquis's Mansion?"
Ye didn't like to hear it.
"My niece, Mingyan, is incredibly beautiful and has been meticulously nurtured since childhood. She's renowned in the capital for both her beauty and talent. She's truly exceptional in both beauty and talent. So why isn't she worthy of the Yongning Marquisate?" Ye said unconvincedly. "Besides, even if she can't become the Crown Prince's wife, marrying a bastard is at least possible, right?"
"Can any of the bastards of the Yongning Marquisate achieve anything?" County Magistrate Zheng said disdainfully, "They're nothing but relying on their ancestors' protection. They're idle and unlearned, with no ambition to make progress. They just play cockfighting and walk the dog. Instead of this, why not marry into the Su family?"
"The Su family is just a farming family. My brother will definitely look down on them!" said Ye.
Her brother was only interested in marrying his daughter into a wealthy family, so how could he care about the Su family's status?
"You're so short-sighted! When your brother takes a liking to her, she'll no longer look down on your family!" County Magistrate Zheng snorted and said, "You also looked down on the Su family back then, saying Fu Ya wasn't worthy of Zheng Er. What happened?"
When County Magistrate Zheng said this, he felt annoyed.
"As a result, marrying Fuya is not so easy nowadays!"
After all, he proposed marriage personally, but people rejected him.
After hearing what County Magistrate Zheng said, Ye became unhappy and her anger was aroused.
"Why is it difficult? No matter how powerful the Su family is, they are still just a farming family. No matter how blessed Fu Ya is, she is just a country girl..."
"A country girl? I'm already the village chief!"
County Magistrate Zheng slammed the table, interrupting Ye's words.
Ye, “…”
She had forgotten that Fu Ya was now a village chief with a title.
Although the rank of a village chief is not high, there are few girls in the world who can be given a rank title except those from wealthy families.
County Magistrate Zheng glanced at Ye and continued, "Even if you're from a prestigious family with a long history, who could have such an honor? Who could be personally appointed as a village head by the Emperor? Your niece is so capable, but can she? Does the Emperor even know who she is?"
Ye, “…”
I opened my mouth, but couldn't say anything.
When County Magistrate Zheng saw that Ye was speechless, he became more and more righteous.
"I had wanted to take this opportunity to help your family, but since you're not willing, I'll personally write a letter and ask my eldest brother to find a young woman of outstanding appearance from the Zheng clan and send her here." County Magistrate Zheng said, "Just don't regret it in the future."
After saying that, he stood up and went to the study.
Ye sat in the room, thought for a moment, stood up and chased after him.
**
Su family.
Qian Yuemei sat at the door of the main room, cracking melon seeds.
Melon seed shells were scattered all over the floor.
Mrs. Su and Zhang Maiya were busy cooking dinner in the kitchen.
The fourth child lay on the ground, staring at Dabai and saying "Woof woof woof..."
Dabai stared at Siwa and cried persistently, "Ahhhhh..."
Xiao Tangbao glanced at his second sister-in-law and walked towards Siwa and Dabai.
"Si Wa, the ground is dirty, don't lie on it all the time." Little Tang Bao said helplessly.
Then, he said to Dabai, "Dabai, you are so stupid. Dogs always bark, why can't you learn to bark?"
The fourth child got up from the ground very obediently.
Dabai felt aggrieved and cried "wooooo" a few times at Xiaotangbao.
Xiao Tangbao no longer paid attention to Siwa and Dabai. He took a broom that was almost completely bristled and went to sweep the melon seed shells on the ground in front of Qian Yuemei.
As soon as Xiao Tangbao picked up the broom, the door was pushed open and Old Man Su and his wife came back with Old Man Su and his brothers.
So, when the Su family members entered the house, they saw this scene——
The pink and tender little girl was holding a broom that was taller than her and was working hard to sweep the melon seed shells.
Qian Yuemei, the culprit who vomited melon seed shells all over the floor, sat on a mat like a young lady, still making "crackling" sounds with her mouth.
It looked like he was abusing child laborers and bullying his sister-in-law.
The Su family members, who were smiling, immediately changed their expressions.
Su Laoer's face darkened.
Anger appeared on the faces of Old Man Su and his wife.
Su Laowu's brows were tightly furrowed.
Su Xiaoliu rushed over quickly, snatched the broom from Xiao Tangbao's hand, and picked up Xiao Tangbao.
Qian Yuemei hadn't noticed the change in atmosphere yet, but when she saw Su Laoer coming back, an expression of surprise immediately appeared on her face.
"Dad, you're back!"
Qian Yuemei stood up happily.
Then she lifted her waist, revealing a delicate look.
She is a pregnant woman, so she has to be a little delicate when she sees her man.
Su Lao Er strode over and asked with a sullen face, "Did you ask my little sister to sweep the floor?"
Qian Yuemei: "...No..."
Seeing the anger on her man's face, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
Qian Yuemei looked at this, looked at that, and then found out——
Her parents-in-law and two brothers-in-law all looked at her angrily.
Qian Yuemei's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly explained, "My aunt swept it herself for the pleasure of doing so."
After saying that, she hurried to see Xiao Tangbao, "Aunt, tell your second brother quickly that you swept it of your own accord."
"Brother, I swept it on my own accord. It has nothing to do with sister-in-law." Little Tangbao explained readily.
She really was sweeping it out of her own accord.
Although her second sister-in-law was not very likable, she did not dare to assign her any work.
However, as soon as Xiao Tangbao finished explaining, the expressions on the faces of the Su family members became even uglier.
In their opinion, Qian Yuemei was clearly forcing Xiao Tangbao to confess in front of everyone.
It can be seen that little Tangbao is usually afraid of being bullied.
Now in front of so many people, no one dares to refute.
"Don't be afraid, little sister." Su Xiaoliu hugged little Tangbao, "With Brother Liu here, no one can bully you."
After saying that, he glared at Qian Yuemei angrily.
When Old Man Su saw his little girl holding a big broom, he felt so distressed.
Now I have even more imaginations of scenes where my little girl is bullied by my second daughter-in-law.
"Come here, my daughter, let daddy hold you."
Old man Su quickly reached out and snatched the little girl from his youngest son's arms.
As a father-in-law, he cannot teach his daughter-in-law a lesson, but he can beat his son.
So, he said to Su Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, bring me the firewood stick."
Su Xiaoliu glanced at his second brother and immediately understood what his father meant.
"Oh, okay, Dad, wait, I'll get it."
After Su Xiaoliu finished speaking, he ran off to look for a firewood stick without any brotherly love.
Su Laowu wanted to stop her, but when he thought of how his younger sister held the broom just now, he stopped.
If the second sister-in-law felt sorry for her second brother being beaten, she would not dare to bully her younger sister in the future.
Su Laoer hadn't noticed yet that a beating was waiting for him.
"Qian Yuemei, so this is how you bully me behind my back!"
The veins on Su Laoer's forehead were throbbing. He glared at Qian Yuemei and shouted angrily.
"I, I didn't!" Qian Yuemei hurriedly defended herself, "How could I dare to bully my aunt? Even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare..."
Not to mention ten times the courage, even if she had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't dare.
